Catherine Tyldesley, here as a teenager when she weighed 15 stone and wore a size 22, has revealed she ditched Coronation Street’s pies and bacon butties

Cath, 34, who recently showed off her incredible weight loss with a dramatic before and after schedule, spoke about how she shed the fat from when she weighed 15 stone as a teenager and managed to fit in exercise when filming

She said: “It’s just fitting it around your schedule.

“If I was working I’d go on walks. I have been known to squat Shayne Ward. Squat a friend.

“On night shoots there are a lot of pies and bacon sandwiches floating about but I took stuff with me.”

On Instagram, she wrote: "Nearly there!! This was April after my injury... vs today at almost the end of 12 week program with #EvilSteve @upfitnesslive @upfitnesswomen ... super excited to continue on my fitness journey. All hail #evilSteve @arooshanekonam @heynickmitchell @elliottupton feeling strong!! ."
